How to Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns

Rubik’s cubes are 3-D combination puzzles. The standard Rubik’s cubes have 9 faces on each side of the square cube and each face has one of six solid colors. A traditional way to solve the Rubik’s cube is by returning the blocks so that each face of the cube has only one color.However, since the cube’s creation in 1974, there have been many other ways found to “solve” the Rubik’s cube. Each of them create some sort of repetitive design over the faces of the cube.

Method 1 of 3: Creating a Zig-Zag

  1. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 1
    1
    Start with your solved cube. Creating a zig-zag pattern is one of the easiest ways to create a pattern on a Rubik’s cube. Begin with your Rubik’s cube in the solved position—each face of your cube is one continuous color.
  2. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 2

    Turn opposite faces in opposite directions. Start, for instance, looking at your red face. Turn the right side of the cube one click forward so that there are three reds on the top right of your cube. Turn the left side of the cube one click backwards so that there are three reds on the bottom left. You’ll be left with three red cubes down the front middle of your cube.[2]

    Turn your cube and repeat. Turn your cube to the left so that the dark blue face is in front of you. Repeat the last step on this side. You will have a blue strip down the center front your of cube.[3]

    Turn back to the red side and repeat. Once again, turn the right side of your Rubik’s cube one click forward and the left side one click backwards. The only red remaining on this face will be in the center.

    Repeat three more times. Turn back to your blue side and repeat this motion. Then once more on the red side and lastly on the blue. You will finish with a staircase-looking zig-zag across four sides of your Rubik’s cube.[4]

Method 2 of 3: Creating a Checkerboard

  1. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 6
    1
    Start with the sides of your cube matching. You want to start with your cube in the solved position to make this pattern. Also known as a chessboard, your end result will be in a checkered pattern with each side featuring two colors.
  2. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 7
    2
    Turn the opposite faces in opposite directions. Begin by looking at your green face. Turn the right side of the cube 180 degrees (the three greens will end on the opposite side from where they started). Take the left side and do the same.
  3. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 8
    3
    Turn the top and bottom 180 degrees. Keep the green center cube facing you. Turn the top cubes clockwise 180 degrees. Do the same with the bottom cubes.[5]
  4. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 9
    4
    Make your final spins. With the green center block still facing you, spin the front face of your cube 180 degrees. Do the same with the back face of your cube. You’ve now created a checkerboard on all sides of your cube.[6]


  1. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 10
    1
    Begin with your cube solved. Once again, you want to start off with your Rubik’s cube in its solved position. Making a fish pattern on your Rubik’s cube is simple. The end result will have swapped two edge pieces so that the remaining ones look like a fish with fins. If you hold it diagonally it will look like a fish swimming away from you.[7]
  2. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 11
    2
    Make two 180 degree twist. Start with the white surface facing you. Turn the front face 180 degrees. Now, take the right side and twist in 180 degrees.[8]
  3. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 12
    3
    Repeat this three times. Keep the white cube in front of you and again twist the front of it 180 degrees. Turn the right side, then the front face, and the right side one more time. Always keep the white face in front of you by making sure the center cube of the face is white.
  4. Make Awesome Rubik's Cube Patterns Step 13
    4
    Make your fish swim. Look at the top of your Rubik’s cube. You’ll see a fish shape that looks as though it is swimming away. The four center pieces are its body and the three remaining are the fins.

BANK ACCOUNT A bank account is a financial account between a bank customer and a financial institution. A bank account can be a deposit account, a credit card, or any other type of account offered by a financial institution. The financial transactions which have occurred within a given period of time on a bank account are reported to the customer on a bank statement and the balance of the account at any point in time is the financial position of the customer with the institution. a fund that a customer has entrusted to a bank and from which the customer can make withdrawals.

Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was born on September 5, 1888 at Tirutani, Madras in a poor Brahmin family. As his father was poor Radhakrishnan supported most of his education through scholarships.  His father worked as a subordinate revenue official in the service of a local zamindar (landlord) and the family was a modest one. He did not want his son to receive an English education and wanted him to become a priest. But life had other plans for the young boy.   Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan had his early education at Gowdie School, Tiruvallur and then went to the Lutheran Mission School in Tirupati for his high school. He joined the Voorhee's College in Vellore and later switched to the Madras Christian College. He chose Philosophy as his ma
